A manhunt was underway Friday evening for a 28-year-old man who shot and wounded an immigration agent and two police officers during a homeland security investigation near Sacramento, authorities said.

The special agent was taken to a hospital and was "stable and alert" after the initial 3:10 p.m. PT shooting in Roseville, Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokeswoman Virginia Kice said in a statement.

Two hours later, about 5:10 p.m., two Roseville police officers were shot during the manhunt involving several agencies, a police spokesman told KXTV. One officer was listed in serious condition at Sutter Roseville Medical Center; the other officer's injuries were less serious.

There were conflicting reports about whether another officer was also injured.

The ICE agent was shot during an investigation with the Roseville Police Department. The nature of the investigation was not immediately released.

Roseville police spokesman Brian Jacobson identified the suspect as Sammy Duran, the Roseville & Granite Bay Press Tribune reported. He was described as having a goatee and wearing a dark-colored beanie with white pants and a gray short-sleeved shirt.

Police said at 6 p.m. the suspect was confined to a one-block area.

Officers from several agencies swarmed Roseville, a suburb of the state capital, and residents were warned to stay inside and lock their doors. A perimeter was set up, and police were searching all vehicles leaving the area but prohibiting anyone from entering.

Rush-hour traffic on Interstate 80 was especially heavy as a result.
